  • Housing Requirements, and to Meet the Identified Housing Needs of Its Residents
    6 SOCIAL MATTERS T DRAF Luton Local Plan 2001 - 2011 47 SOCIAL OBJECTIVES 6.1 Luton is expected to contribute to county-wide and regional housing requirements, and to meet the identified housing needs of its residents. However, Luton has difficulty in realising this expectation as scope for further residential development is severely restricted because the town is already built up to its boundaries. The main opportunities for new residential development arise as a result of the reuse of vacant or underused employment or commercial land, and the intensification of existing residential areas, mostly through conversions to flats, and development of ‘backland’ sites. 6.2 The provision of adequate community facilities, together with green space and leisure uses, is important to the quality of life for the residents of Luton and is a major land use issue. Luton is generally deficient in green space, with particular shortages in some inner areas, such as Bury Park. Development pressures in such a tightly constrained built up area have to be balanced against the need to protect green spaces and other community facilities. T 6.3 Thus the social objectives of the Plan are: Housing G Meeting local housing needs, including the need for affordable housing Leisure and DRAFCommunity Facilities G Making adequate and appropriate provision for sport, leisure, community development and green space to meet local community needs 6.4 The following chapters on housing and leisure and community facilities seek to deliver these objectives, through policies intended to satisfy both Government guidance and local concerns. 48 Luton Local Plan 2001 - 2011 HOUSING Introduction 6.8 There is a limited scope in Luton for new housing due to a lack of available developable land.

  • Consultation Draft of Luton Rights of Way Improvement Plan
    AGENDA ITEM AREA COMMITTEE: SOUTH LUTON DATE: 2ND OCTOBER 2007 SUBJECT: CONSULTATION DRAFT OF LUTON RIGHTS OF WAY IMPROVEMENT PLAN REPORT BY: HEAD OF ENGINEERING & TRANSPORTATION CONTACT OFFICER: KEITH DOVE 01582 547211 IMPLICATIONS: LEGAL 3 COMMUNITY SAFETY EQUALITIES ENVIRONMENT FINANCIAL 3 CONSULTATIONS STAFFING OTHER WARDS AFFECTED: ALL PURPOSE 1. The Government requires the Council to publish a Rights of Way Improvement Plan (RoWIP) that sets out the current condition and use of Public Rights of Way in and around Luton, and suggests ways in which it could be improved. Government Guidance on the content of a RoWIP indicates that it should cover: • the extent to which rights of way meet the present and likely future needs of the public; • the opportunities rights of way provide for exercise and other forms of open air recreation and for enjoying Luton and its surrounding area; and • how accessible rights of way are to blind or partially sighted people and others with mobility problems. 2. It is necessary as part of this process to conduct a 12-week consultation on the draft RoWIP to assess the priorities of local residents and other interested stakeholders. The results of this consultation will be reviewed and used to inform the development of the final Plan to be published in late 2007. The purpose of this report is therefore to seek the views of this Area Committee on the consultation draft of the Luton RoWIP, a summary of which is appended to this report. RECOMMENDATION(S) 3. That the North Luton Area Committee note the report, and identifies the priorities that should be afforded to each of the actions and any other actions not currently included in the plan REPORT 4.

  • SAHAAS Special Architectural Collection
    SAHAAS Special Architectural Collection In 2016 the Society acquired the two sets of papers that form this Special Collection from the families of the late John Smith and Gerard McSweeney respectively. The Collection relates to the history of the town’s many timber-framed buildings. It forms an important resource especially for researchers investigating the urban development of market towns such as St Albans. Both Smith and McSweeney were members of this Society, John elected an Honorary Member in 2012. Smith managed the extensive 17th century research project undertaken by SAHAAS members from the 1990s. This led to the publication of the acclaimed St Albans 1650-1700: A thoroughfare town and its people. McSweeney was a key member of the research group. Together they worked on a detailed investigation of surviving architectural evidence for the 17th century town. The combination of their work with the more typical documentary study of social history sources was an innovative feature of the project. With a career spent as an investigator with the Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England, Smith brought his professional expertise to bear on this work. This Special Architectural Collection contains the fruits of their research. Of particular note are over 50 reports drafted by Smith following visits to many of the remaining secular 17th century buildings. The papers otherwise consist of images, maps and extracts from documentary sources that were used to develop their interpretation. Eventually we intend to add these papers to the Library’s online catalogue. In the meantime the following fairly rough and ready handlist should help researchers identify material of interest.

  • Local Plan 2001 - 2011
    Luton Local Plan 2001 - 2011 Adopted March 2006 Department of Environment and Regeneration FOREWORD This written statement and the accompanying Proposals Map is the statutory local plan for Luton and constitutes part of the development plan for the Borough. It was adopted under Regulation 27 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 on 30th March 2006. The Local Plan is the Council’s land use strategy for the Borough. It sets the pattern and character of future development in the town and provides the basis that the Council will use for the determination of planning applications. The Council expects that land shown on the Proposals Map without a specific designation will be retained in its current use, unless the proposed new use complies with the policies in this Plan. In assessing planning applications, the Council will take into account all of the relevant policies in the Local Plan and any other material considerations before reaching a decision on the merits of the proposed scheme. Hence it will be necessary for applicants to identify, and have regard to, all relevant policies. These may, for example, include design, landscaping and car parking, as well as any specific land use or site-specific policy. The process of preparing the Local Plan involved the publication of an Issues Report, First Deposit Draft and Second Deposit Draft, a Public Inquiry that was chaired by an independent Inspector, and Proposed Modifications made having regard to the Inspector’s recommendations. All stages involved extensive consultation and the Council wishes to thank all those organisations and individuals who took part in any stage of the process.

  • Luton Hat Trail Leaflet
    Luton’s Heritage — Hats off to Luton: a guide to the town’s hat industry The Luton Hat Trail www.travelluton.co.uk 2 Philip Wright, a member of the Felt Makers Livery since he was 21, has been running the family business, Walter Wright, hat manufacturer, for over 15 years. The company was formed in 1889 by Philip’s great-grandparents, Walter and Minnie-Susan Wright, in Albion Road, Luton. The Wright family have been involved in the making of quality ladies hats for over 300 years, making Philip one of the oldest ‘blood line’ hat manufacturers in the world. Inspired by his private customers and friends, Philip designs and makes hats for individuals, including HRH Princess Royal, film, theatre, television, uniform and department stores and boutiques worldwide. He takes his creations to a variety of different public exhibitions from Dubai to London. Whether the hat is for a special occasion, such as the races or a wedding, or more niche club and daywear, Philip endeavours to have a hat for everyone. See video at www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZcADJzQrfY Luton’s Heritage • Luton Hat Trail 3 Introduction Welcome to the Luton Hat Trail! In the 18th century the English hatting industry was predominantly centred on London, Luton, Denton and Stockport (near Manchester), and Atherstone (Warwickshire). Historically it consisted of two distinct crafts, the straw hat trade (women’s hats and bonnets) and the felt trade (caps and men’s hats). At the beginning of the 1800s the Napoleonic Wars blocked imports of straw plait and hats from the continent, so Luton’s businessmen and women set up factories, both large and small, to supply local and national markets with straw hats.
